Yeah, they don't care that senior talent left because that was the whole point.

My most McGyvered solution to create a bootable USB was to take a really old Android phone and make it into one. Worked surprisingly well, actually.

More powerful hardware makes tasks that were previously not considered end-user tasks feasible for end-users, just give it some time.

Growing up, there was an association in my area for common ownership of different types of machinery and other equipment for its members. You paid something like $10 a year, and for that you got to borrow all kinds of things you might need as a home owner, like a wood chopper/splitter, high pressure washer, trailers, leaf blowers, cement mixer, scaffolding etc.

I always thought that was brilliant.

Even if you assume that additional labour costs are a bit higher in Germany, there's no way on earth that it could explain the difference of the Bay Area-median being over 3 times higher.

Middling pay? At FAANG-tier companies?

These are some extraordinary claims in need of some extraordinary proof.

Sure, but why would this lead to a decrease in power consumption? I'm not sure that follows.

Finally all that power won't be wasted waiting for a single app download to finish and install.

Wait, what do you mean by this?

I honestly stopped caring a long time ago. I've been using bluetooth headphones exclusively since before the jacks started going away, and I'm just not bothered by it.

It would have been nice for them to stick around, but it's not really a hill I'm willing to die on.
